Re: Fun with D800 Photos
Shelby, those shots will have a lot of wedding photographers drooling into the guests' salmon appetisers.. great stuff indeed!
Gary, I hope you've got a good copy of the 24-120. it is such a useful lens. You really must do the AF fine tune thing though: it is astonishingly easy and not only does it do what is says on the tin but it lets you place the DOF where you want it. My 70-200 in a studio at F8 was carrying all its DOF in front of the POF and I managed to adjust it so exactly that now, focus on the eye means the tips of nose and ears are in focus. Really useful.
LR4 is so good at what it does. Just download a trial and play. The shadows slider alone is worth the cost of entry with a D800. It is very intuitive yo use but if you want to throw some time at it, the Lula video series will leave you a total expert and with very nice results.
